Hi Michael,

I applied the patch, and it almost works. After running a command, I am not 
presented with a new line-- I need to erase the last command in order to 
enter a new one. 

Also, there is about a 45 second delay between a d.rast command and output on 
the canvas... Do you know what could be causing this?

Finally, after about 30 seconds I received a warning that d.erase wasn't yet 
supported. 

I like the idea here, but the speed of rendering is far too slow for standard 
usage.

Cheers,
Dylan
